    I got so tired of mums dying before their time I decided to plant two to see how they’d do. Well two years later they are just beginning to to bloom are huge and fill in my front garden perfectly. Love watching everything but especially when the kids are so involved with the project of the day! Thanks Laura, Aaron, Benjamin and Samantha 🌻🎃🌻🎃🌻🎃🌻🎃🌻🎃🌻🎃🌻

    Oh, the kids are so precious! I love Samantha finding the pumpkin that’s half green and asking if it’s ok to take that one then making sure Benjamin gets the message, too. I assume that’s because when she sees half-green pumpkins growing on the vine, she’s not supposed to pick them yet. What a joy of a childhood y’all are making for them!

  • @janetconner6900

    Loved everything about this video. The planting, the killing of spider mites (fingers crossed), the adorable list, the kids running and picking out the pumpkins, the decor. All of it. Today is the first day we're not in the 100's nor the 90's. Whew. We survived, as did our garden. Ty for all you do. I surely appreciate all of it. (Loved the music you had today. Glorious)

    Laura, I use my pumpkins for 3 holidays. Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. For Christmas I spray paint the yellow/orange pumpkins silver or gold. With some greenery, the white pumpkins, and fairy lights they make a beautiful holiday arrangement.

    I’m remembering when Benjamin was about two walking on the gravel at the garden center and thinking oh I hope he doesn’t fall. And look at him now, peeling out with that cart running so fast. Samantha is so cute. Looking at her dad like what do we do it’s sprinkling.

    I usually don’t like music in videos because , like the music that was playing when you were working in the vegetable beds, it is frequently too loud and painful for me. BUT, I ❤️❤️❤️ the music that was playing, with the rain in the background, while you were staging the pumpkins on the porch steps . It was so lovely and just perfect ambiance!

    That was fun! Thankyou! I enjoyed seeing what you were planting and identifying with the plant woes. (Last year I lost three roses I was overwintering in the garage due to aphids.). One rose survived and I am planting it in the ground this week. Our trees have started changing color in earnest. There is snow on the mountain peaks. Time for me to wind down my gardens. We were so blessed this year!

    Thoroughly enjoyed seeing the kids pick out a billion pumpkins, the entrance display looks incredible and those railings are particularly beautiful! Our pumpkin field doesn’t open until October 4th here in Yorkshire, UK. I’m really looking forward to our annual pumpkin picking and creating our display, usually on our farmhouse kitchen table. The varieties were beautiful at your Mum’s garden centre! Great idea partnering with a local grower 🍂 🎃
